After having solved your philosophical inquietudes you have done nothing but merely set the things to do something. Go be a painter, a musician or a poet. If you damaged your mind too much in your philosophical quest, be a writer or something else. But just move on from intellectual play.

Being a poet, that's just producing a million pieces nobody will ever want to consume. Same with music, except there at least you get some pussy wet. Nobody paints, that's for lonely ladies.
Besides, I don't think you ever finish the process of figuring out which philosophical line of thought fits and is most convincing to you.

those activities are not meant to be done with praise or worldly intentions in mind. they are the achievement and realization of the mind, its merging into the oneness of the universe.

seems like a terribly naive view of philosophy. How does it square up to the idea that philosophy is about the production of new concepts?
Honestly, if you want to "solve your philosophical inquietudes," it probably is best to look into philosophy on only a surface level. Even "starting with the Greeks," might take you down a nasty rabbit hole.

where is it implied those are the goals of philosophy? those are the goals of life, through the art, after one has cleaned the shit with philosophy.
but ok, you are coming from the interpretation of philosophy from the deleuze tendency. i talk more from the pierre hadot tendency of philosophy as embodied in a way of life.

>What are the goals of philosophy
A big part of philosophy is determining its ends
>The goals of life
ethics
You must be aware that there is a vast variety of thoughts on both of those subjects. You sound like a guy who had a pleasant shroom trip and think you got shit figured out.
It's human nature to be irked by such airy claims as in the OP.

you are considering everything from the pov of philosophy, whereas philosophy is just one possible pov.
i guess it cant be helped. i would probably have said the same when i was enmeshed in philosophy.
